reddish-purple color in the glass. Remarkably nuanced aromatic profile
featuring scents of black cherries, spices, mocha java, smoky oak and exotic
purple flowers. A wine of the earth with loam-infused black cherry and berry
flavors, a hint of tar, dusty tannins and bright acidity that lifts the rustic finish.
Clean and silky with many years of life ahead. Very Good (+).Reviewed December 14, 2010
